Copying a single project from a local laptop repository to our servers repository
I've scoured the subversion book and the past posts to this list but
have not found what I am looking for.
I have been working on a project solely on my laptop (MacBook) with a
local svn and repository with other projects.
What I want to do is to copy the project I'm working on from my local
MacBook repository to a central (remote) server.
The server already has a repository with other projects that I don't
want to lose, I only want to copy the one local project from my
laptop to the main server.
I don't really want to stop using the local repository for my work, I
really just want to have the latest snapshot on the server for users
to peruse and for backup.
Is this covered somewhere and I'm just not finding it, or is it bad
practice?
Thanks,
ml

Tailor ([1]) allows you to sync changesets between two repositories.
This should exactly do what you want.

Do I have to use svndumpfilter after svn dump to limit it to the
project I'm interested in and its history?
I only want to move one project.
Thanks,

You can "svnadmin dump" your laptop's repository and "svnadmin load"
it into the central repository.
Or, if you don't care about the history of your repository, you can
"svn export" the head of your repository and "svn import" it into the
central repository.
Both methods are good for one-time transfers of projects from one
place to the other. If you want to now continue using your laptop
repository, and later bring the central repository up to date with
the new changes you've made, I think you've got a lot more fun in store.
There is another project, svk, which is based on svn, which is
designed to allow multiple repositories to coexist with one another.
Perhaps that's what you're looking for.
